Major Update Speculation Thread V3: Tonight's the Night, forever and always - Games

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;36433095]Late as hell but Final fantasy VII and Tribes are going to be on steam (maybe). Any clues about any horrible cross-promo?[/QUOTE] Im sure Tribes will have a promo, but i hardly think anything from FF would fit TF2.

So I'm now positive that the PNGs will reveal a QR code. I might be late, so I'll take your clocks, but I'm on mobile so I don't want to skim through pages I missed. Remember how Valve updated the localization files in QR code a few weeks back? So it's definitely QR. Valve really has thought this through.

[QUOTE==DarkStar=;36433095]Late as hell but Final fantasy VII and Tribes are going to be on steam (maybe). Any clues about any horrible cross-promo?[/QUOTE] I was waiting for Tribes in Steam, aboout time, any source you can provide? Also, FF VII? WAT? In the promo scene, I wouldn't mine a Tribes one, I love that game and, damn, we got Deus Ex items already, why not.

Am I the only one who doesn't particularly enjoy these puzzle things? Just update the damn game.

[QUOTE=Hell-met;36433130]Am I the only one who doesn't particularly enjoy these puzzle things? Just update the damn game.[/QUOTE] Valve ARGs are usually fun, but this one is just terrible because people can screw over the whole thing by posting fake data.

which tribes game is coming on steam ?

How do you convert the hex to a png file? I've got like 70% of the first one and I want to see if the QR code can correct itself.

Cid's goggles would be swag.

Barret's arm gun for Engineer. :v:

Is there a way we can just extract all the error codes from a game file of some sort? Definitely a long shot though because the codes are probably hidden away in the game source.

A Tribes noisemaker. SHAZBOT SHAZBOT SHAZBOT.

[QUOTE=thrawn2787;36433077]you don't need to buy bananas to get new codes just restart tf2 from what i can tell[/QUOTE] It's the same code for me every time I restart TF2.

Why has this slowed down so much all of a sudden?

people have gone to sleep

[QUOTE=Uesrname;36433225]Why has this slowed down so much all of a sudden?[/QUOTE] WORLD BANANA SHORTAGE

[QUOTE=Uesrname;36433225]Why has this slowed down so much all of a sudden?[/QUOTE] the initial rush of codes coming in has winded down a lot.

yeah that site says there's a ton of conflicting data now gj trusting your community valve. you should know by now they (we) suck

can someone explain to me what is going on, I was gone for a couple hours and all I see is codes and bananas.

[QUOTE=Uesrname;36433225]Why has this slowed down so much all of a sudden?[/QUOTE] We know all there is to know right now. All normal people can do is wait for the smarter people to gather data together and make a picture with it.

That one website isn't taking my code so [img]https://dl.dropbox.com/u/64555157/ShareX/2012-06/2012-06-21_19-22-01.png[/img]

[QUOTE=thrawn2787;36433248]yeah that site says there's a ton of conflicting data now gj trusting your community valve. you should know by now they (we) suck[/QUOTE] This is why the original spreadsheet was better. It had actual screenshots that could be checked against the text.

So should we expect a new workshop item in an hour? Thoughts?

[QUOTE=Benlecyborg;36433281]Alright I propose this, we get a small group of people together. Possibly 8 or so (1 for each banana error) and we scour around and copy down codes from screenshots.[/QUOTE] I'm all for this, if we get more people.

Any chance we could put together some kind of exchange for those banana-less people to get more codes?
